*The Asilomar Accords provide uniform standards, applied at shelters around the country, for classifying the health status of shelter animals.

The standards are directed at saving the lives of all healthy and treatable companion animals.

Meet Millie

Millie was a black lab puppy caught outside during a tropical storm. After being hit by a car, she was found in a drainage ditch that was filling with water. 

GPR's Dr. Doolittle Fund allowed us to pay for the months of treatment required to save her injured leg, including a cast, and at one point, eternal fixtures. Click below to see more Dr. Doolittle Animals like Millie.
